Decagon
Application
A/B-testing suite for AI support agents: structured experiments (tone, logic, flows) against live traffic with control groups, statistical-significance testing and gradual rollout.
Dashboards and natural-language querying ('Ask AI') over support data: CSAT/deflection performance tracking, heatmaps, customer-journey visualization and knowledge-base performance.
Analyzes support conversations to detect gaps in a company's help center and auto-generates draft articles, ranked by impact, with monthly updates.
Integrated testing suite (internally called 'Simulations') that validates AI-agent behavior across channels before production deployment.
Always-on monitoring and QA for AI and human agent interactions against custom quality criteria.
Agent platform
Decagon's authoring layer for the rules an AI support agent follows, so non-engineering teams can build, iterate on and scale agents.
An AI partner built into Decagon that helps teams build and improve support agents — distilling best practices from hundreds of Decagon deployments into guidance for the builder, and auto-tuning the agent via "Duet Autopilot," which improves it with every conversation it handles.
Elastic
Application
An AI security-operations layer that correlates alerts from a customer's existing security tools, prioritizes threats and guides response workflows without replacing their SIEM.
GenAI- and ML-driven capability inside Elastic Observability that automatically detects, diagnoses and helps resolve operational issues, providing recommended actions for SREs.
Monitoring capability inside Elastic Observability for generative-AI and agentic applications: performance, cost control, guardrail tracking and reliability for GenAI workloads.
Agentic security-operations platform unifying SIEM, XDR and native automation, with autonomous agents handling detection-to-response workflows and purpose-built AI skills for threat hunting, alert analysis and detection engineering; supports multiple LLMs including on-premises models.
Agent platform
A builder for custom AI agents that answer questions and take actions over data indexed in Elasticsearch, using configurable tools, skills and prompts.
An automation engine that runs both scripted steps and AI agents which reason through investigations and execute response actions against data in Elasticsearch.
No counterpart
Decagon sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for Elastic yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.
AI agent
Builds and runs customer-support agents that resolve enquiries over chat, email and voice.
Decagon's chat channel — an AI agent that handles live customer conversations in a web or in-app chat surface.
Decagon's email channel — agents that read and answer customer email threads rather than routing them to a queue.
Decagon's voice channel — an AI agent that answers customer phone calls in place of a hold queue.
Elastic sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for Decagon yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.
Platform
A conversational assistant embedded in Kibana that answers natural-language questions against a customer's own indexed data across Elastic's Observability, Security and Search solutions.
Model API
Hosted inference endpoint that runs Elastic-managed LLMs, the ELSER sparse-embedding model and third-party embedding models for ingest, search and chat without provisioning ML nodes in a customer's own Elasticsearch deployment.
